With a
flexible departure time, this
private Christmas food tour unfolds in Strasbourg at
a rhythm that suits you, fully shaped around your wishes.
In winter, Strasbourg truly earns its title as the
Capital of Christmas. The city becomes a glowing wonderland where
French elegance meets Germanic heritage, brought to life by
festive lights, decorated façades and the
comforting aromas of spices and baked goods.
From its medieval center to its refined 19th-century boulevards,
Strasbourg’s culinary soul takes on a special character during the holiday season, rooted in
Alsatian terroir, market-driven cuisine and long-standing festive traditions.
Led by a
private, knowledgeable local guide, you will wander through iconic neighborhoods and hidden streets, stopping at handpicked
gourmet addresses and traditional Christmas markets that capture the authenticity and excellence of the region. This experience is more than a tasting tour — it is a gentle immersion into the
Alsatian Christmas way of life, where generosity, craftsmanship and conviviality reign.
Along the way, you will enjoy
8 to 10 carefully selected stops, chosen according to the season, the moment and your personal preferences. Tastings remain deliberately subtle, showcasing festive flavors, winter specialties and local delicacies without revealing every detail in advance — leaving room for surprise.
If you wish to
customize the experience further — tempo, thematic focus, dietary needs or special touches — we will be delighted to design a tour that reflects your desires.
